How can I report my short selling transactions as per SEBI guidelines?
In accordance with SEBI’s short selling framework, clients are required to disclose details of their short sell transactions to the broker on the same trading day (T day).
To disclose your transactions, you are required to follow the below process:
1
Download and fill up the Short Selling Disclosure Form.
2
Email the filled form to: [email protected]
3
Ensure the disclosure is submitted before the end of the trading day on which the short sale was executed.
Information required in the form:
- Security Name
- Series (e.g., EQ)
- Trade Date
- Quantity
- Client Code (UCC)
- Rationale for Short Sale (select one):
- BTST shares not received
- Shares deposited in DP but DIS could not be initiated within time
- Others (please specify)
Important:
- Timely disclosure is mandatory to remain compliant with regulatory requirements.
- Short selling involves significant risks, including the possibility of substantial losses. Clients must maintain applicable margin requirements at all times. Failure to do so may result in square-off of positions as per applicable policies and exchange regulations.
